Manufacture date and shelf life
Can I tell when my Maison Margiela Replica Under the Lemon Trees Eau de Toilette was made from its batch code?
Yes, as an estimate. Maison Margiela uses the L'Oréal Groupe format: for example, code 28Y801 reads as August 2024. Results come from public reports, not from the brand.
How long does Maison Margiela Replica Under the Lemon Trees Eau de Toilette last unopened?
Maison Margiela does not publish an unopened shelf life that could be verified (checked October 2026). Go by the date printed on the pack.
How long can I use it after opening?
Look for the open-jar symbol on the pack (for example 12M = 12 months after opening). The period-after-opening calculator gives the exact date.

Declared fragrance allergens 9
Limonene, Linalool, Benzyl Salicylate, Benzyl Alcohol, Citral, Coumarin, Geraniol, Eugenol, Benzyl Benzoate
EU rules require these fragrance components to be named on the label above a small threshold (the list was extended in 2023). They are common in fine fragrance; if your skin reacts easily, spray on clothes rather than skin, or patch-test first.
Other things in the bottle
- UV filters (Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate) protect the juice’s colour and scent from light — they do not protect your skin.
- Colourants (CI 19140) give the liquid its tint.
Shelf life and storage
Most perfumes stay good for years unopened, and usually 3–5 years after opening when kept away from heat and light. Keep the bottle in its box, away from the bathroom and windows. If the colour darkens or the opening smells sharp or sour, it has started to turn. Check the batch code to see when it was made.
